In Search of a Usable Philosophy of Education: The Vision of J. Glenn Gray.
Preskill, Stephen
Journal of Educational Thought/Revue de la Pensee Educative, v31 n3 p205-22 Dec 1997
Explores J. Glenn Gray's neglected philosophy of education as a meaningful framework for grounding the practices of teachers. Addresses tensions between individuality and community, argues for a vision that honors wholeness and synthesis, contends love of beauty as an integral part of education, and embraces plurality and public action as one of the bases for a truly generous education.
